After a moment of silence, she suggested, "Hey, it's New Year's Day, it's lonely all by yourself, how about you go to your second aunt's house to celebrate the New Year?"
Taozi shook her head. "Forget it, Second Aunt. If my mother knew that I would rather spend the New Year at your place than at home, she might even resent you."
Liu Axia stopped talking.
Before leaving, he gritted his teeth and took out two dollars from his pocket and stuffed them into Taozi's pocket, "Be careful, lock the door at night, and buy some delicious food."
Taozi quickly declined, "Second Aunt, no, no, I have money, and my family is in a time of needing money. Cousin Qiu Shi is also planning to get married, and the house hasn't been built yet. My cousin and brother are still in school."
Liu Axia forced two yuan into Taozi's pocket and said, "Here, my second aunt doesn't have any money at home, but we don't need these two yuan. Just think of it as my second aunt giving you New Year's money in advance."
Qiao Youcai knew that Qiao Jiangxin's store was closed today, so he came up to Liu Cuiyun to get the goods, and took Qiao Jiangxin with him.
Like Liu Axia, Qiao Jiangxin invited Taozi to the Qiao family.
"My family lives in town now, and we don't know anyone around here. According to the current situation, we will go to Chuanqian Village on the second day of the New Year. You can just stay at home. Normally, they will come to my house to pay New Year's greetings on the fourth or fifth day of the New Year. If you are afraid of running into them, we can go to Ning County in advance to avoid them."
Taozi shook her head. "Sister Jiang Xin, I know you mean well, but I really want to spend the New Year alone. I don't want to cause trouble to anyone."
Seeing Taozi's firm tone, Qiao Jiangxin stopped persuading him, "Go ahead, come as you please, but be careful in the city. If you have any problems, call Aunt Li next door. If you are bored, go and play with Cai Xiaohui and Ah Xu. By the way, Hu Changliang's shop said it will be open until New Year's Eve. If you have any problems, go to him. If you really don't want to, go to Vice President Wang..."
Taozi pushed Qiao Jiangxin out, "Sister Jiang Xin, it's time to go. I'm not a child anymore. I can take care of myself. Third Aunt is still waiting for you, so you can go without worry."
Qiao Jiangxin followed Qiao Youcai to find Liu Cuiyun. The New Year goods they purchased last time sold very well. Today is the 24th, and there is still nearly a week before New Year's Eve. There will be markets every day in the three days before New Year's Eve, so after discussing, the Qiao family decided to purchase another large batch of goods.
"Hey, Jiang Xin, Second Brother Qiao." Liu Cuiyun greeted the two of them enthusiastically when she saw them.
Qiao Youcai took out the last purchase order from his clothes and said to Liu Cuiyun, "Sister Liu, the goods are selling very well. We need to buy another batch, based on the quantity from last time."
Qiao Youcai pointed at a few of them and said, "Double the quantity of these."
Liu Cuiyun looked down and pointed at two of them. "You can take more of the others, but take the normal amount of these two. This is enough for the New Year. If you can't sell them all, you'll have to keep them for next year. Besides, this thing may become fashionable again next year, and the old style may not sell well."
Qiao Jiangxin stretched his head to take a look and saw that the two categories Liu Cuiyun was referring to were Spring Festival couplets with the word "Fu" on them and rice cakes.
She turned to Qiao Youcai and said, "Dad, just do as Aunt Liu said."
Qiao Youcai looked grateful and said, "Hey, I have to trouble Sister Liu to go to the cargo building again."
The Qiao family's New Year goods were selling like hot cakes, while on the Jeju side, Gu Yunzhou and Liu Xinyan also squeezed out of the train station entrance.
Gu Yunzhou lifted his luggage bag and looked up at the sky of Jeju. He said to Liu Xinyan, "If you are going to the military hospital dormitory, we will separate here!"
Liu Xinyan was stunned for a moment, and then she reminded Gu Yunzhou, "Brother Gu, the military compound and the military hospital dormitory are in the same place."
Gu Yunzhou shook his head and said, "I won't leave the compound anymore. I'll go to where I should go."
